FROM THE FIELDS: WIDESPREAD LETTUCE ICE EXPECTED

November 28, 2022

The Arizona/California desert region forecast is calling for widespread lettuce ice over the next few days. The coldest morning temperatures will arrive Wednesday, November 30. Expect significant ice that will impact harvesting, processing, and loading times in addition to further hindering plant growth and causing freeze-related quality issues in lettuce items.

Markon inspectors are monitoring commodity and value-added items closely and will update further as needed.
